    Summary

    “Hey, little guy. Look at this. Do you think any of these people can help us?” He pulls up a projection of the log and holds the child up to see it. “Any ideas?”

    The child looks at him and then back at the contacts, screwing up his face in an expression of concentration. He takes his time, and the man tries to be patient. Finally, the child stretches out a tiny hand and points to a log entry.

    “Boba Fett,” the man reads. He pauses, to see if the name sounds familiar. It doesn’t. “Tatooine.”

    Or, Din Djarin crashes his starship and only knows two things when he wakes up: One, that he never removes his helmet and two, that he would die to protect the child.

    Summary

    Commander Ponds whirls around at the sound of Mace’s step and bolts up to his feet. He begs Mace not to take Boba back to Kamino. He says that he’ll look after him. He’ll take responsibility.

    With hands pressed together, he pleads for mercy for his brother. Mace tells him not to be ridiculous. Of course he isn’t taking Boba back to Kamino. He’s waiting, that’s all.

    It is only fair to give everyone a second chance. Even Jango Fett.

    (An AU where Mace Windu acquires and shares custody over a six-year-old Boba with Jango.)

    Summary

    Cody fumbles his helmet off and tucks it under one arm, hovering mid-air in front of the tower’s balcony. He’s a professional, he reminds himself.

    “Hi, I’m Cody,” he says, keeping his hands and shoulders relaxed; some of the captured royals can be a little skittish at first. “I’m here to rescue you.”

    The man in the tower just laughs, and the sound is as delightful as his singing had been.

    “Oh, that’s very kind,” the prince says, his madder blue eyes twinkling. “But I’m quite alright, thank you. Have a good day.”

    Or, Commander Cody and Star Wars’ actual Disney princess.

    Summary

    Luke and Leia. Kenobi remembers their names; he cradles them both as close to his chest as he can fit them and tells them that he is their uncle.

    The children squirm and break away from him to tuck themselves into Cody’s ribs instead, one on each side. They don’t understand what has happened; they seem to think that this is some sort of assignment. A trip. A test.

    They tuck themselves against Cody and ask him what is happening and where is Dad and when can they go home. They want to go home.

    (AU where Vader keeps the twins and raises them while on Imperial fuckhead duty. The Rebellion steals them back, and Rex watches as they re-root themselves.)

    Summary

    Captain Gregor immediately leans his chin on his palm and smiles at Fives. Fives smiles back. He does not perceive this action to be the threat that it truly is.

    “That man’s going to kill him,” Jesse says with his neck craned as far as it will go.

    “Yep,” Kix agrees solemnly.

    “You never know,” Echo says. “He’s squeezed better outcomes out of worse odds.”

    (Fives decides that he's going to join the illustrious, mysterious, and oh-so exclusive Commanders Batch, and he's going to start by becoming besties with Commander Cody. Rex cannot stop this trainwreck but he can certainly watch it happen in slow motion - and occasionally he can offer a word or two of advice.)

    Summary

    A Force Ghost pops in to help Leia construct her lightsaber and guide her on her path.

    ----
    “You’re going to need a bigger power cell if you want that saber beam to be longer than your hand.”

    “Ben.” Leia sighs, and even she’s not sure if it’s grief, joy, or exasperation. Perhaps all three. “Obi-Wan.”

    “You can call me whatever you like, Princess. I’m just glad you can hear me.”

    Summary

    Sometimes, you just need one more thing in your favor, one more chance, to succeed. Sometimes, a little more communication ends up going much further than anyone thinks it will. Sometimes, suggesting to your upset lover that he keeps in contact with the man none of you wanted to send to a penal battalion, but had to, leads to things not even masterminds could predict. Sometimes, this is enough to get through the trials and tribulations to an outcome you shouldn't have been able to reach.

    Sometimes is this time. This time, Obi-Wan suggests that Rex check up on Dogma, and, in the end, that is enough.

    Summary

    Fox was trained to be an elite soldier for years on Kamino. To fight alongside Jedi to defend the Republic. Instead, he does the very necessary work of guarding Coruscant. A job that involves more doing the Coruscant police's job and babysitting the senate than it should. But Fox is a vode and he is loyal and he will do his job to the best of his considerable ability.

    This does not stop Fox from wanting to bang his head into his desk and keep it there because of all the superfluous paperwork when Thire shows up with a lost pet fox. And that's before a senator goes missing.

    Summary

    Summary

    Coruscant gets its own Guard. Breha wants to see more, so Bail sends her pictures of them.

    This is, eventually, the very thing that ends up bringing them and the Guard, and especially the Commander of the Guard, more closely together.

    It might also turn out to be, eventually, the very thing that helps to save the Galaxy.

    Summary

    “For someone who is so distrustful of politicians, he seems to be enjoying the company of a certain Senator. He was seen leaving the Senator’s residency at a very late hour. In a rather…compromising manner, I might add. People could very easily think that there was something more going on. ”

    Anakin looked truly puzzled now, and Sheev could almost hear how the gears were turning in his head. He waited, patiently, for them to finally click, and that moment came soon, as understanding suddenly dawned upon Anakin’s face.

    “But-” Anakin stopped, his eyes wide as he looked at Sheev. Yes, this was truly entertaining.
    “But, he’s a married man!”

    Sheev couldn’t quite stop his face from dropping from sheer confusion.

    What?

    -

    Or, Palpatine attempts to manipulate Anakin, just a little bit, to turn him further away from Obi-Wan.

    It doesn't go quite as he planned.

    Madara adopts a kid and couldn't care less about the consequences.

    From the kid's chubby hands, leaves sprout and roots trail after their feet.

    It doesn't take a genius to figure out whose kid it is but if Hashirama is going to let his two year old kid wander around in the woods, well, Madara is sure they won't mind if he rehomes them. Permanently.

    Summary

    "It‘s a good thing," Marilka continues, rattling on as if Geralt had made any indication that he was listening at all. "I get to see the Continent. Travel to places that aren’t just the boring old market.” She swings her feet, kicking up a bit of grass and dirt as the tip of her boot scrapes the ground. "Good-bye Blaviken — just the whole world before my eyes. As far as my feet will carry me."

    'Go away,' Geralt wants to say, but the words rest on the tip of his tongue. He can't find the strength in him to speak them out loud. Just for today, he promises himself. Leave her at the next village.

    An AU ending from Episode 1 where Marilka joins Geralt on his adventures. In which Geralt accidentally acquires a daughter (not just the one destiny gave him), Jaskier teaches him how to parent, and Marilka adopts two unqualified father figures.

    Summary

    Typically, a courting occurs in two sidelong processes; an Alpha proving themselves, and an Omega preening.

    An Alpha's worth is measured in gifts. The more expensive the better, if current advice from jewellery manufacturers and fashion advertisers and restaurants geared towards courting meals is to be believed. And yes, plenty of Omegas like ornamental things; an instinctual interest in shiny little decorations and trinkets to make a nest appealing to the senses; something to wear as a token of one being courted. Starts off the process, lets an Omega know that there’s interest there.

    And all the while, Omegas are intended to make themselves as attractive as possible - pamper themselves with makeup and facials and filed teeth, preen, and sit pretty for an Alpha to protect.

    Shouta, at seven years old, had listened to his mother describe the romance and flattering expense of a courting - and promptly wrinkled his small nose. At thirty-one, he’s got the word for it he was missing back then.

    Bullshit.

    Yagi's the first person he's met to think the same; or to be amenable to something - different.

    Ming Fan could not call himself a taboo - breaker or a rebel - he was used to the flow of life and to following someone. But on that day, something snapped in him - like the pages of an old book were torn by too much tug. (A story where cannon fodder is not going to act as it should, and real life is hardly possible to write on the pages of the book)
